Again as seen in the gallery that group members have a life outside of Radio, Andrew M0OOO, Shannon M3ZSW and our club mascot Hopper spent the day on the Derbyshire high peaks at Bleaklow Summit at some 2,000 feet above sea level and just south of the A628 Woodhead Pass. Access is not difficult but some preparation and experience is required if like these three you want to visit the crash site of the USAF Boeing RB-29A Superfortress 44–61999, of the 16th Photographic Reconnaissance Squadron at Higher Shelf Stones.

As Wikipedia puts it “Much of the main plateau of Bleaklow is a boggy peat moorland, seamed by ‘groughs’ (pronounced ‘gruffs’, water-eroded channels in the peat) and lacking strong changes in elevation – in poor conditions its traverse is probably the most navigationally challenging in the Peak District.”
